Are they within their rights to cancel the order without offering a suitable replacement?

In short, yes, they are. If you can think of an alternative that they have in stock, I'm sure they'll be only too willing to sell it to you.

This is covered in their T&Cs, which you would have accepted when placing the order. Contract not formed until goods are shipped.
